Studio MDHR has announced that the first set of Cuphead DLC, the smartly named The Delicious Last Course, has been delayed to 2021.

The Delicious Last Course downloadable content – which sees Cuphead and his erstwhile friend Mugman joined by a new character, Ms. Chalice – take on a whole new island, brimming with dastardly cartoon threats.

The DLC was first announced way back in June 2018, with a tentative 2019 release date attached.

That’s according to Valve, who wrote in a blog post about its support for the newly-launched PlayStation 5’s DualSense gamepad that using a controller was an increasingly popular way of playing games on the PC platform.

Historically, PC users have preferred mouse and keyboard over controller, namely for the sake of accuracy but also because it’s often the easiest way of navigating complex games. Even those who did turn to gamepads often used the the Xbox One or Xbox 360 controllers, but PlayStation inputs have also seen an increase in popularity.
